Privacy Policy
Effective Date: March 17, 2026
Introduction
JSP Media LLC operates the BoardPass mobile application. This policy explains our information collection and protection practices.
BoardPass does not require an account, does not collect personal information, and stores your preferences locally on your device.
Information We Collect
Locally Stored Data
The following data is stored exclusively on your device and is never transmitted to our servers:
- App preferences (theme, time format, text size)
- Favorite airports (saved codes)
- Recent airports (viewed codes)
- Watched flights (flight numbers)
- Cached flight data (temporary offline viewing)
Location Data (Optional)
Approximate location may be used to identify nearby airports for the “Nearby” section. Processing occurs on-device only, with no server transmission. You may deny or revoke permissions at any time in your device settings.
Data We Do NOT Collect
We do not collect names, email addresses, personal identifiers, device identifiers, advertising IDs, analytics, tracking SDKs, usage statistics, or behavioral data from our own systems.
How We Use Information
Network requests are made solely to retrieve real-time flight information. Searches send airport codes or flight numbers to data providers — these requests contain no personal information or identifiers.
Third-Party Services
FlightAware AeroAPI
Provides real-time and scheduled worldwide flight data. Queries contain only airport codes or flight numbers. View their privacy policy at flightaware.com/about/privacy.
Google AdMob
BoardPass is free to download and is supported by advertising provided by Google AdMob. AdMob may use your device's advertising identifier and other information to serve personalized or non-personalized ads. AdMob's data collection is governed by Google's privacy policy.
View Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. To opt out of personalized advertising, visit google.com/settings/ads or adjust your device's ad personalization settings.
Aviation Weather Center
Provides official METAR weather conditions for airports. Queries contain only ICAO airport codes.
Federal Aviation Administration
Provides real-time ground delay and ground stop program data. No personal information is transmitted.
Transportation Security Administration
Provides current security checkpoint wait times. No personal information is transmitted.
Data Storage and Security
All preferences and cached data are stored locally on your device. We do not operate user databases. Flight data is temporarily cached on-device and refreshes automatically upon reconnection.
Children's Privacy
BoardPass does not collect personal information from users under 13 and requires no account creation. Advertising within the app complies with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).
Changes to This Policy
Updates will modify the “Effective Date” at the top of this page. Continued use of the app after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
